If I Had Some Global Warming

It was cold yesterday in Minnesota. It was so cold, (how cold was it?) that since the invention of the thermometer, it has never been as cold in Minnesota. We are talking record setting cold. I get cranky when it drops into the teens. I have no idea why anyone wants to live in the Nation’s Icebox.

From the AP here:

The temperature in International Falls fell to 40 below zero Monday, just a few days after the northern Minnesota town won a federal trademark making it officially the “Icebox of the Nation.”

The previous record low for Feb. 11 in International Falls was 37 below, set in 1967, said meteorologist Mike Stewart at the weather service in Duluth.

The temperature also fell to 40 below in Embarrass, 80 miles southeast of International Falls. That’s just one degree above the all-time record in Minneapolis, 250 miles to the south, that was set in January 1888, the weather service said.

If only global Warming were real, these poor people in Minnesota wouldn’t be freezing their collective asses off. Click the video below to enjoy. Thanks to Newsbusters for the video.
